One Texas Rangers fan was absolutely desperate to get star shortstop Corey Seager’s autograph at Friday’s championship parade. The fan was so desperate, in fact, that he probably broke a few rules and regulations to do it.
The fan in question bolted from the side of the parade route and rushed up to the truck carrying Seager during Friday’s parade. The fan handed over some sort of clothing item and a pen, and remarkably, Seager obliged and signed.
Like everyone involved in the parade, Seager was being escorted by police, but they apparently did not see a threat here. To be fair, there wasn’t one: just someone who was extremely hyped to get his favorite player’s autograph, so it would seem. While Seager was signing, the person was jumping around and celebrating like he just won the World Series himself.
You cannot blame any Rangers fan for wanting a piece of Seager, who had perhaps the biggest hit of the World Series and won MVP honors. Not only did someone manage to get his autograph at the parade, but the fan will have quite the story to tell about getting it, too.
